I know we've got our fair share of comic book fans here and while Turner wasn't my favorite artist, I did like his stuff.

Hello all,

Like I said, not my favorite artist, but he had talent. Especially since he kept working after his initial diagnosis and kept trying to get his stuff out on time too. I'm sorry he's dead.
